Long trips are priced on distance, days, fuel and driver accommodation, so send your dates and headcount early. Read the packing and preparation guide before you travel.
Inside the bus
A Hiace is a compact van-style bus with forward-facing rows and a low step-in door. A Coaster is a mid-size bus with 30 to 33 seats in a 2-2 layout either side of a centre aisle, with an under-cabin luggage hold. Check the seat count against your real headcount, not the guest list, and add anyone who might join late.
